It's not generally a good idea to copy database files across platforms, let alone possibly
different versions of the mysql server.
You probably want to set up master-master replication, which should work fine across
platforms. If you are sure that you'll never change the (same) data on both sides
concurrently, there is pretty much nothing that can go wrong.
Have a look at the online documentation at mysql.com, it should be your first stop for
everything :-)
